I mean they each protected capitalism in their own way:
FDR, being old money who’d just seen MacArthur send in the tanks to raze a camp of rebellious soldiers and knew how these things tended to go, invested in guillotine insurance via the New Deal.
Hitler and Mussolini used the other approach, privatizing/selling off state assets and applying colonial methods they’d perfected in Africa back home to buttress capitalism and protect profits.
Fun fact, the word “privatization” first appeared to describe the policies of the Third Reich. It later became a rallying cry of Rageanonomics, Thacherism, and Pinochet. What now a days we often qualify as Neoliberism.
